Abstract:
A fabrication method of a FET that enables to realize a shorter length between a source-side edge of a recess and an opposing edge of a gate electrode at a higher accuracy than the accuracy limit of the present lithography technique, i.e., about .+-.0.1 .mu.m. After channel, carrier-supply, and contact layers are epitaxially grown on a semiconductor substrate in this order, a patterned insulator layer is formed on the contact layer. Using the insulator layer as a mask, the contact layer is isotropically etched to form a symmetrical recess on the underlying carrier-supply layer. One of the ends of the contact layer facing the symmetrical recess is etched again to make it asymmetric. During the etching processes, the underlying carrier-supply layer is almost never etched due to large etch rate differences for the contact layer and the carrier-supply layer. A patterned conductor layer is formed on the patterned insulator layer to form the gate electrode in Schottky contact with the carrier-supply layer. After removing the insulator layer, and source and drain electrodes are formed on the contact layer. An etch-stop layer is additionally formed between the carrier-supply layer and the contact layer.

Abstract:
A hetero-junctioned FET having as its conductive channel a highly mobile electron accumulated layer where electrons are one-dimensionally distributed. This FET is provided with first and second semiconductor layers which, formed on a semiconductor substrate, are different from each other in electron affinity and produce a semiconductor hetero junction, a source electrode and a drain electrode formed on either the first or second semiconductor layer, multiple fine damaged-area stripes formed near the interface of the hetero junction within the first semiconductor layer in the channel area between the source and drain electrodes, and a conductive channel of multiple fine electron accumulated-layer stripes generatred at the locations other than those facing the damaged areas near the interface of the hetero junction within the second semiconductor layer. In this FET, the damaged areas selectively formed at the locations other than those of the conductive channel areas between the source and drain electrodes eliminates, at the locations corresponding to the damaged areas, the electron accumulated layers generated due to a semiconductor hetero junction to function as a conductive channel. This enables a conductive channel to be divided into strips each 0.1 &mgr;m or less wide.
Abstract:
A junction type field-effect transistor in accordance with the invention includes a multi-layer structure which includes a first undoped semiconductor layer, a first first-conductive type semiconductor layer and a second undoped semiconductor layer. These layers are deposited and epitaxially grown in this order on a surface of a semiconductor substrate. A part of the first first-conductive type semiconductor layer is exposed outside in a surface of the multi-layer structure. A second-conductive semiconductor layer is joined to the multi-layer structure through the surface of said multi-layer structure. A drain electrode line and a source electrode line are kept in ohmic contact with the second-conductive type semiconductor layer, and are disposed at opposite sides of a location at which the first first-conductive type semiconductor layer is joined to the second-conductive type semiconductor layer. The invention makes it possible to form the first first-conductive type semiconductor layer thinner, and thereby achieve a gate length shorter than a minimum length achievable by lithography technique.
